Default best paint for headers

What's the best way to coat your pipes with. I ha e thunderheaders and as everyone knows factory finish is shitty want to refinish just don't know what materials to use. One day will get ceramic coated. Or powder. But for now I want to do it myself.

Default Pipe Paint

I used Rustoleum B-B-Q black semi gloss paint on my Basanni Road Rage. Had to respray them every couple of months to keep them looking decent.

man honestly after you buy the paint, primer, cleaning material, prep materials, you will prob be close to 1/2 of what it would cost to get high temp powder or ceramic... i am happy to shoot you a quote if you want... exp if it is a Thunder header, may as well nt even paint it never will last (just a guess i see your in CA)
